Saudi bourse moving closer to foreign access-document | Reuters

Saudi Arabia's stock market committee is moving closer to allowing foreign investors direct market access, a document seen by Reuters showed.

At a Dec. 21 meeting bourse officials asked representatives from regional banks and brokerages to check capabilities for handling foreign accounts, the document showed.

"We might see the markets opening up in the first half of 2011 or probably in the second quarter," a source familiar with discussions said.
